Fortune teller sued by woman for wrongly predicting her death

An unfortunate fortune teller in France is being sued after telling a customer that she would be dead within six months.

According to news reports the 35-year-old said she suffered from severe psychological trauma after the prediction by the telephone clairvoyant last July.

The woman, apparently, paid £25 for the premium-rate call, and was told her doctor had wrongly diagnosed the stomach and chest pains she had been feeling.

The woman, Magalie said that the fortune teller had told her that she’d be “dead within six months.”

"So I went to see another doctor, who told me there was nothing whatsoever wrong with me.” Following which she called the clairvoyant back, but she stuck to her prediction, and told the woman that a lot of doctors were incompetent.

Soon after she started feeling traumatised and saw a therapist who advised her to take legal action against the clairvoyant.

The case is due to come before a judge in Thionville, eastern France, later this month.
